[Mapserver-users] filter and itemnquery

[Michael Schulz]

Hi folks,

for a while i am struggling now with itemnquery and filter expressions.
I am using MS 3.6.3.
I want to query a layer with county names, to only show those that start
with a certain letter. MS-cgi complains that i need to set a filter for
the query layer, but when i set this filter, i can't get it to work with
regular expressions (that work if i use them in a class expressions), it
only recognizes simple string comparisons on the complete attribute
value.
Please shed some light on this topic.

TIA, Michael
